Because the voices inside are getting higher
And that it seems like she can't find herself in the dark
Thought that when the lights come out she would still be a fighter
But how would a fighter not see in the dark?
How would a fighter fight herself?
How would a fighter have all these scars?
How would a fighter run from all the monsters?
And how would a fighter only wish for the stars?
The stars that almost everyone has:
To feel free and to have a safe space
Because why would she want to live in a race?
It all fell and she ran far away
Away with her pain that she couldn't stay
And a low self esteem that she left herself fade
But she was tired from all that shade
She realized that she deserves to see the sunlight
The end of that tunnel she has been fighting in
She believed that there could be better things but out of sight
And that she deserves to forgive herself for every sin
To forget the past with all its monsters
And that maybe she didn't even have to win
She learned that peace sometimes comes with giving up and choosing herself over everything
She got to disappoint that fighter within her
Yet embrace every other thing.
